What is Temporary Employment and how is it reported?
Temporary Employment is a paid, unsubsidized job lasting 30 days or less. Examples include temporary employment agencies (such as Manpower, Labor Ready, etc.) and casual labor (such as odd jobs for landlord, friends, and relatives) or other employers offering temporary employment. Temporary Employment can be part-time employment (31 hours per week or less), or full-time employment (32 hours per week or more). In either case, there is an estimated employment end date of 30 days or less and the employer does not consider the parent a permanent full-time or part-time employee. Coordinate with the DSHS WFPS in cases where the temporary employment lasts more than 4 consecutive days or is reoccurring each week to decide whether the parent is in the appropriate component.
